| AHSERA. The
son of Ullu-sunu, king of Minni. On ascending the throne, he broke
the treaty of tribute with Assyria, and plundered some of the border
towns. Upon this, Assurbanipal, king of Assyria, assembled a large
army at the town of Duran, to invade Minni. Ahsera made an attempt
by a slight surprise to rout the Assyrian army; but he was completely
defeated, and fled in haste to his capital city, Izirtu; and when that
surrendered, to the fortress of Istatti or Adrana, leaving his troops to
be slaughtered by the victor at Izirtu. He was unable to resist the
forces of Assurbanipal, although ably assisted by his general, Raidisadi,
and his people revolting from him, he and all his family but one, were
massacred, and his body treated with great ignominy. His son Valli
succeeded him, and made peace with Assyria. (An Archaic Dictionary,
Cooper, 1876).
